Amazing Apps: Medici

Medici, the next-generation HIPAA-compliant messaging app
that enables medical providers and their patients to communicate
virtually via text or video, today announced its official launch in the
U.S. in all 50 states.

Beginning
today, users can invite their existing family physician, pediatrician,
dermatologist, dentist, veterinarian, mental health provider,
nutritionist and other medical providers to join the Medici platform.
Providers throughout the U.S. can similarly invite their patients to
join Medici, which offers a more convenient, accessible and modernized
method of communication and represents the latest innovation in
healthcare technology.

“The
current healthcare model in the U.S. is fragmented and frustrating for
both patients and their medical providers,” said Clinton Phillips,
founder and CEO of Medici. “Medici focuses on reinventing the
doctor-patient relationship and reforming how healthcare is practiced
and delivered by offering patients and medical professionals a more
streamlined and compliant system of communication and record-keeping.”

Unlike
telemedicine companies, Medici enables patients to communicate with
their existing medical providers, creating an additional channel for
patients and their doctors that allows for more customized and timely
medical care through a single app.

“Medici
recognizes the importance of the doctor-patient relationship, which is
quickly diminishing due to unnecessary burdens placed on medical
providers today,” said Dr. Thomas J Kim, chief medical officer at
Med2You. “Medici offers providers a unique opportunity to care for their
patients on their own terms without the effort, cost and time of
conventional service options.”

Users
can communicate safely on Medici by downloading the app for free via
the App Store or Google Play. Once downloaded, users can send emails to
their medical providers to request they join Medici.

Cost per interaction on Medici is determined by your medical provider. For more information, please visit medici.md
